The V Nickel, also known as the Liberty Head Nickel, was minted in the United States from 1883 to 1912. The design features a "V" for five on the reverse side, symbolizing its denomination of 5 cents. The 1890 Philadelphia Mint issue is particularly noteworthy for collectors, as it represents one of the earlier years of this series and showcases the craftsmanship of late 19th-century coinage. V Nickels are popular among collectors for their unique design and historical significance within American numismatics.
